| I’m about to push the button to get 2 SVS 3000 micros to add to ATC SCM40s. @m669326 I usually adjust one sub at a time. And yes, be patient with break in How big is your room? I would say that if you also want optimal performance, good quality power cables and subwoofer interconnects can make a profound difference in... | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 @tvad Good point on the additional tubes on the Baltic 3. Noted, though my experiences still remained what they did. Always a pleasure discussing with you. | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 @tvad Regarding the Modwright Transporter, one is able to use a 6922 to 6SN7 adapter and accommodate 6SN7 tubes. I did so successfully for years in a second system. That unit was what made me so drawn to the Baltic 3 when it was announced. Also, ... | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 @tvad I would still say the Lampi Baltic 3 is still warmer and does have some bloom compared to most DACs on the market. Maybe not in comparison to other tube DACs, but certainly compared to the DACs I listed. I agree that there is a dimensionalit... | |
| Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Hearing Loss @kb54 I hope you find a way to keep the experiences positive as well. Happy to chat if you ever need someone to talk to about it. Yes, Vintage Vinyl’s closing was really sad news. I think it was around 2015 or so when vinyl was definitely on the u... | |
| Cables to settle brightness @w123ale Yes definitely let it burn in at least a week or two before buying new gear or cables to address issues. What amps are you using, and which PowerPlant do you have? | |
| Cables to settle brightness @w123ale Which PowerPlant did you get, and when? If it is not broken in, give it time. If you have a current hungry amp and are plugging it into the PowerPlant, unplug it and go straight from the wall. I’ve owned a few PowerPlants and had to do th... | |
| Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Hearing Loss I’m sad to hear of your situation. I relate to it on many levels. 1) I grew up in central Jersey and spent a lot of my youth in Princeton and the Princeton Record Exchange. Driving between there and Vintage Vinyl In the 80s and 90s made a number ... | |
| Another one (server) bites the dust! Aurender N10 vs. N200 @budburma Sure, happy to chat. I have some time later this morning. I have some good stuff to share on clocking that may help you make your decision. | |
| Cartridge recommendations Look at the Audio Technica ART9XI. It retails at $1,500 but can be had for less. It’s my favorite cartridge $5K and less, and I’ve tried a number of cartridges from other manufacturers. Eventually I bought an Air Tight PC-1s that retailed $8K to r... | |
| Another one (server) bites the dust! Aurender N10 vs. N200 @budburma Two other things to consinder with the N10. 1. It is a seven-year old model, vs the N200 which is only a year old. There has been a significant jump in streaming and serving technology hardware design in the last two years alone. 2. ... | |
| Another one (server) bites the dust! Aurender N10 vs. N200 @budburma If you bought the KWA from CY, then yes, that would have been mine. He used it only very lightly as he was evaluating amp roulette style. Given your tastes, I would certainly recommend the N200 over the N10. Happy to discuss options if y... | |
| Premium SuperTweeter Cables? PartsConnexion commissioned DH Labs to design a pure silver interconnect cable. They ended up using 2x23awg, and I think this might be a good fit for your application. I’ve used this cable years ago to built my own interconnects with good results.... | |
| I’m about to push the button to get 2 SVS 3000 micros to add to ATC SCM40s. Congrats OP! I use two SVS SB-4000 in my room, and I influenced a friend to get a pair of the SB-3000 micro. He has a smaller room than mine, and he’s quite happy with them. My favorite feature is the ability to tweak phase by degree from the mobi... | |
| Another one (server) bites the dust! Aurender N10 vs. N200 @budburma I am an authorized Aurender dealer and can tell you that despite the N10 having a higher retail price, the N200 is sonically superior. Aurender admits they surprised themselves with the performance demonstrated by this unit. Some people ... |
